SUMMARY:EA Foundation Course MOOC - Founders Fundamentals to Entrepreneurship
DESCRIPTION:Course Details\n\nCourse Type: MOOC (100% online\, self-paced)\, 25 hours (total workload) \nCourse Duration: Autumn/Winter Semester (15 October 2026 – 28 February 2027)\nCredits: 2 ECTS\nWho is it for? Students and Staff\nNow Available on ACE²-EU Moodle platform\n\nAbout the Course\nEvery entrepreneurial journey begins with curiosity. \nThe ACE²-EU Entrepreneurship Academy Foundation Course is the starting point for students who want to explore entrepreneurship\, develop future-ready skills\, strengthen their entrepreneurial mindset and understand how ideas can be turned into action. \nNo business idea is required. No previous entrepreneurship experience is needed. Whether students are interested in founding a start-up\, developing their own ideas or simply building valuable skills for their future careers\, the Foundation Course provides an accessible starting point. \nDesigned as a flexible\, self-paced online programme\, the Foundation Course allows participants to learn anytime and anywhere through the MOODLE learning platform. At their own pace\, learners build a solid foundation in entrepreneurship while earning academic recognition through ECTS credits and a certificate of completion. \nThe focus of student-facing communication should be on flexibility and outcomes rather than workload. The approximately 15 learning units should be communicated transparently on the detailed course or registration page\, but should not lead the awareness campaign. \nMore than an online course\, the Basic Course is the gateway to the ACE²-EU Entrepreneurship Academy. It opens the door to a European community of aspiring entrepreneurs\, innovators\, students\, experts and ecosystem partners. \nUpon successful completion\, participants meet the prerequisite for progressing to the Advanced Course and can apply for the International Traineeship Week. They can also discover networking opportunities and further Entrepreneurship Academy activities across Europe. \nThe Foundation Course should therefore not be positioned as an isolated MOOC. It is the first step in a wider European entrepreneurship journey: \nDISCOVER → LEARN → UNLOCK → CONNECT & EXPERIENCE \nThe journey does not end with a certificate – in many ways\, that is where the next stage begins. From foundational knowledge to advanced learning\, networking and international experiences\, participants can become part of a growing European entrepreneurship ecosystem that inspires collaboration\, innovation and lifelong entrepreneurial learning. \nWhat you will develop\n\nOpportunity spotting – recognise opportunities where others see problems.\nProblem solving – tackle real challenges in a structured way.\nDeveloping and testing ideas – move from a first idea to something you can validate.\nCreative thinking – find new and unexpected approaches.\nTaking initiative – become active instead of waiting.\nCommunicating ideas – present your ideas clearly and convincingly.\nTurning ideas into action – translate plans into concrete next steps.\n\nThe Curriculum\n\nThink Like an Entrepreneur\nIntroduction to Social Entrepreneurship\nLeadership & Team Development\nProject Management\nDesign Thinking\nProblem Solving\nUnderstanding your customers\nCreative Thinking & Ideation\nBusiness Model & Value Proposition\nTechnological Advancements in Start-ups and Business\nPrototyping\nMarketing Part 1\nFinance Part 1\nStorytelling\nPitch Part 1\n\nCourse Journey\n\n\n\nDates\n1 October 2026\n\n\nFormat\nSelf-paced online learning on ACE²-EU Moodle\n\n\nResources\nAll materials available on the Moodle platform throughout the course\n\n\nFinal Assessment deadline\nNo fixed date\n\n\nOrganised by\nARIES Incubator — ACE²-EU Alliance\n\n\n\n  \nLearning Outcomes \n\n\n\nAchievement\nECTS awarded\nRecognition\n\n\n\n\nSuccessful completion of the Foundation Course\n2 ECTS\nCertificate of Completion\n\n\n\nWho should apply\n\nStudents from all disciplines – not only business or economics\nAnyone curious about how ideas become opportunities\nThose who want to build transferable skills for their future career\nAspiring founders who want to test and develop their own ideas\nStaff who want to strengthen their entrepreneurial mindset\nAnyone who wants to connect with a European entrepreneurship community\n\nHow to register\n\nApplication deadline: No deadline – registration is open throughout the course.\nRegistration form: Register directly via the ACE²-EU Moodle platform.\nFurther information and enquiries: info.ariesincubator@e-ucb.ro\n\n\n\n\n
